lol,its the only time they have credible reactions and suddenly remember they are driving a car,when i appear in thier mirrors or theyre speeding etc and on the lookout.
only bikers know im not old bill,proves theyre aware of whats going on,dont it.
only annoying part is when u flash up behind them at 90 and they all stomp on the brakes case theyre speeding lol,or the ones that refuse point blank to exceed that 30mph zone cos theyre to nervous of the bill n to scared to look in the mirror properly.
on the triumph its a totally different ride,everyones trying subconciously to kill me.........as for.the yamaha lc's theyre just confused by the red arrows trail of blue smoke lol.

Thats what cracks me up. When followed by police, why do some people refuse to use their mirrors? Isnt it crap driving they are looking out for?

Rofl at the blue smoke. Gotta love the old LC's. It would be nice to try one out, see what the fuss is. My oldest bike was the VFR400 a good few years back.

thanks noe,under the plastic its like new,all clean n shiny apart from the front between the downpipes.
only pain in the butt is having "insta dirt" white wheels lol.

@ ghost:yeh deff get a ride on a big stroker,thatll get the adrenilin going,under full bore my 500 spends as much off the ground as it does on and will wheelie at every gearchange if you stay in the upper 3000 revs area,which you do cos u become addicted to the powerband.
unfortunately it weighs the same as a packet of crisps so u have to concentrate totally and prey u dont hit any big bumps or humpback bridges etc
and of course ridden properly ur looking at 15mpg ave.

Light on the road....Heavy on the pocket My old Subaru did 20 -23 rofl. With UK petrol prices, you cant ride it much......

I know the light bike feeling. I am used to Suzukis Gixxer-750 m8. Nothing would disturb a great line better than a well placed grid/manhole cover I do prefer the extra torque of this bike, though I equally miss the precise handling of the G.

I heard the LC's are hit and miss in the twisties.

Well, at least you can class the LC as multi-functional
